Nah, do what you know is best for you. I get what your other friends are trying to do, and they're doing it out of love and concern, and I get that because I've been there. For some reason, our culture has left us with the impression that everyone's business is our business, and that it is our solemn duty to protect our friends from themselves. I remember thinking that way.
Some people never get to a point where they understand that's not the case.
I'm pretty sure you're an adult who can make your own decisions about what will make you happy and what won't. And if you make a mistake, it's your mistake to make, and to correct. Which, knowing you, you will do once you realize you need to...
So I see no need to try to convince you to do anything other than what you've decided is best for you.
